BLOOMINGTON, Ind.- The Harvard men's tennis
team fell to No. 50 Indiana, 6-1, to wrap up its trip to the
Hoosier State. The Crimson moves to 4-4 on the year while the
Hoosiers improve to 4-1.

Junior Aba Omodele-Lucien and freshman Christo Schultz partnered
to even the doubles score at 1-1 with a 9-7 win at the No. 1
position. The Hoosiers responded by winning the No. 2 doubles match
to claim the doubles point.

Freshman Andy Nguyen picked up Harvard's lone point with a 6-3,
7-6 victory at the No. 6 slot. Junior Alexei Chijoff-Evans fell in
three sets at the top position. After dropping the first set,
Chijoff-Evans bounced back to tie the score at 1-1. In the
third and deciding set, the match went all the way to a
tiebreaker but Indiana's Santiago Gruter prevailed. Omodele-Lucien
also took his match at the No. 3 spot to three sets. The
Hoosiers' Josh MacTaggart took the first set 6-3 and Omodele-Lucien
rebounded to take the second set 7-5 but couldn't close
out the match, falling in the third set 6-3.

The Crimson returns to the Murr Center Tennis Courts to take on
Boston College, Feb. 26, and St. John's, Feb. 27.
